“Later, when Stefan tries to comfort a dejected Caroline, their conversation leads to a horrifying realization.”

In other “Vampire Diaries” news, Paul Wesley will direct Season 5, Episode 18 – his directorial debut. Wesley will be the first “Vampire Diaries” actor to direct.

“It’s an honor and the cast couldn’t be any more supportive, which I feel truly grateful for,” Wesley told BuzzFeed.

Wesley said that the episode will be “both nostalgic and suspenseful.”

“It feels like our world, but something is a bit askew. It feels uneasy. And I respond to that,” Wesley said.

He added that he’ll still have plenty of screen time.

“It’s not Stefan-light, but it’s also not Stefan-heavy,” Wesley said. “I’d say it is somewhere in the middle. A good friend of mine recently directed a film he also starred in, and I was on set the whole time, so I got to see firsthand what that experience looked like.”
